You are warmly invited to an evening lecture and discussion on “Science & Faith: Friends or Foes?” The event will explore the relationship between Christian faith and natural science. Dr. Casey Luskin (a scientist) and Dr. Steve Dilley (a philosopher) will present complementary views on the topic. Dr. Dilley will survey four different models about how science and faith are said to relate to each other. Dr. Luskin will then provide an in-depth examination of scientific evidence that supports belief in a Creator. Together, they will illuminate why and how science and faith are friends, rather than foes. The event is co-sponsored by Open Door Ministry Presbyterian Church (Mount Prospect, IL) and Discovery Institute (Seattle, WA). No registration required. The evening is …
